Bring my 15 years old sister to US with my parents.

[losing 0]

Hi,

I am trying to bring my 15 years old sister and my parents to US at the same time. I have submitted 3 separate I-130 applications for my sister and my parents. I know, usually citizen's parents usually get processing faster because of no visa limit, but the process for my sister will take years. I am wondering if there is a way such that can bring my sister to US at the same time as my parents'.

Because if my parents come to US first, then there is no one can take care of my 15 years old sister. I have tried to ask for expedite for my sister's case using the humanitarian situation, they rejected. Please give me any advise. Thank you in advance.

Sadly there is no way to bring your sister here at the same time as your parents. Your parents would have to come to the USA then they could apply for a minor child of a LPR it would still take a while but it would be faster than you filing for your sister.

There is absolutely no way for your sister to immigrate faster with your parents. There are too many families like that. USCIS is aware of problems, but the law does not allow for relief for this situation.

One parent can come to the us first and then petition for the spouse and child. This would be faster than you petitioning for your sister and leaves one parent to care for your sister.

Thank you for all the reply. If there is any exception, it would be great you can share the story.

According to my humble knowledge, once your parents are granted immigrants statues, your sister is automatically granted the same status (of course you have fill out some forms). Your sister is under what is called "derivative status." Actually, it's not you who can bring your sister, but your parents. Need to do more research about this path.

Wrong.

The OP petitions for the parents as Immediate Relatives. Derivative beneficiaries are not allowed. The sister is not granted any immigration rights when the parents gets immigration visas.

From the US consulate in Juarez; http://ciudadjuarez.usconsulate.gov/hivfaqs.html

What is the principal beneficiary of a petition and what is a derivative beneficiary?

In a family-based immigrant visa case, the principal beneficiary of a petition is the person on whose behalf the petition was filed; that is, the person listed on the right side of the front of Form I-130 (Petition for Alien Relative). A derivative beneficiary is the spouse or child of the principal beneficiary. A preference family-based case may have many derivative beneficiaries in addition to the principal beneficiary, and all of the beneficiaries (principal and derivatives) share the same petition and the same case number. There are no derivative beneficiaries in immediate relative family-based cases, which means that each applicant must have his or her own petition and individual case number.
